Microsoft tried that with TPM. Which you can bypass for the most part with Rufus and a clean install. Still some kernel anticheat games you can’t do so so easily.
I’ve already switched over to Linux, just got one more system to migrate. So far 100% worth it to not deal with Microslop.
Me to my 10 year old gaming pc: “I guess it’ll be another couple of years, buddy.”
Give it a lil pat pat for good measure
Another couple of decades, even!
Saaame. I’m still chugging along with an RTX 2060 😭
I’m running a 1070.
They aren’t really making a ton of games that justify a costly upgrade anyways.
Honestly, my PC at this point plays FFXIV and that’s basically it. And I’m OK with that.
Can’t wait for yhem to push forced end of life on all computers

What I am truly afraid of, is they somehow get ahold of Linux, and force slopware onto it, including that EoL bs. Keep offline devices as backup.
Same here, running my 3700X with a 3080.
I should’ve pulled the trigger on the 9800X3D last year like I wanted, but thought it was just too expensive.
Welp.
Don’t worry, I suspect Cloud Terminals will be super cheap. You won’t even need that ol’ thing anymore!
